Flixel's Cinemagraph Pro is a Mac app brings your photos to life. Basically you take a short video, import it, mask off the parts you want to keep moving, and Cinemagraph Pro will make a seamless video loop out of it. It's the kind of stuff you see in fancy online ads, behind feature story headings, and all sorts of other high-end stuff. And it's expensive. Only not right now. After being featured in the Mac App Store Flixel is dropping the price of Cinemagraph Pro by 92.5% — from $200 to $15.

Yeah, it absolutely sucks if you bought Cinemagraph Pro before the discount. But if you didn't, and you even think you might one day have a use for a tool like this, buy it now.

Great response. Users of Fixel weren't buying it through the App Store. They were buying from Fixel, hard discs or D/L. The App Store's offering is new. That bozo ® that spent $200 on this software is obviously ignorant to 'what is is', it's power and ubiquity in the industry.

I thought a user couldn't post a review or rating on the App Store unless they actually purchased the product. According to the stats, the app was updated to version 1.0.1 on February 26 and the review was last updated on March 6. With almost 300 people already finding the review "helpful," I don't think the App Store offering is as "new" as you think. Just saying.

I believe the 'reviews' are refreshed with 'revisions'.I could be wrong...but I've seen this in a few 'others'...IE, theScore Mobile. Click reviews and the first column is for 'Current Version' with 6 5 star ratings. Click the 'All Versions' tab, you'll see 49,202 ratings (at an average of 4 stars). Yes, you're right...you can only review an app you've purchased. Not really sure what the point of that is, but indeed...you're correct;)

Thousands, if not tens of thousands own this software. It's not ridiculous. In fact, i think it was twice that just two years ago on physical disk. Significantly easier to achieve the same effect that you can definitely accomplish in photoshop but it takes 10% the time in this software and PS is five times the price.

I am extremely excited about this "out of nowhere" surprise.
The video outright sucks! I expected to learn what the software was and some info about it, but was only subjected to style for the sake of style. Bleh.

What a hilarious troop of know it alls. Hilarious. Try this. https://flixel.com
Don't just look at the promotional page, scroll down...look at their software, the forums, etc. if you don't want it, don't get it. If you're a photog, videographer, or an 'up-n-comer' in either area this an absolute bargain. Thanks Rene. Some if us appreciate it and can see further than 'skin deep' pardon the pun (and the cheesy 30 second video;))
